Hi Maximiano, welcome to the Critique Gallery - I think this is your first upload here. It's a good place to share and to learn, you have been on the site for a few years so I hope you know what we are about!

I like the way you have seen this. It's ambiguous, it makes the brain work - it could so easily be looking along rather than looking up. The angle of the plant bottom left anchors the composition to the ground while still allowing the walls to soar, and the strong vertical line on the right adds to the ambiguity. Plus the composition is almost symmetrical but with sufficient breaks and variety to give interest.

Good move to use flash, to bring some light into the interior. I would like to try to reduce brightness there a bit, and darken highlights in the distance. This is a classic example of a subject where Raw scores over jpeg, because a Raw file would retain all the available data and enable a bit more detail to be recovered from the highlights. But this has worked pretty well.

One thing it does need is a slight rotation clockwise - in a formal architectural composition like this the verticals and horizontals need to be absolutely precise.

I'm home on a flying visit at the moment, I shall try a Modification when I get back later.

I've had quite a few views of this, and have spent a long time trying to figure out if I'm looking up or looking down. I think I'm looking up, but am still not too sure.
That's what holds the viewer's attention, so that's a very good feature of the image.

It's a shame that the end square is so bright, but it can be toned down a little in editing. At a time of day when the light is less intense, it would look better, but there may not have been sufficient light on the inside. However, you could still use flash, as you have done here.

Pamela.
